In the WG IRC as well as the lobby I find no one really says hello to anyone besides a few people. When I first joined WG (not recently, years ago) one thing that really sold me on the clan was how friendly I was greeted in the IRC. We are terrificly friendly on the forums and I applaud WG for that, but on IRC it seems like we ignore anyone we don't know on a super high level (I am guilty of this myself).

Lets make it a priority to greet people in IRC. It takes a half a second of your time, at least in WG. I know it can be hard in wg_lobby to pay attention but at the very least trials should feel welcome. I'm going to make an effort to say hello to anyone that joins #wg because every little welcome helps when joining a new clan or feeling like part of the community if you've been in it for awhile. If anyone wants to join me I encourage it.


I was at school when I posted this so I didn't exactly have time to search through 4 pages of topics, but originally posted by Dilz/Rene. I'm not really looking for leaders to do something about it, more of a reminder to the community.

I try to do it in the lobby when im doing something afk-able on Runescape.
Most of the time im pking though, so it's pretty hard to keep an eye on the IRC.


But yea, you got a valid point there wink.gif

Hello Wee Gee Family wub.gif

I think I say that pretty often. I love to chat to people in pm randomly too. Just PM someone you don't normally chat to and say hi. If you did it once in a while it would just seem like the thing to do. (But then I randomly visit irc channels or rs cc too.)

Thank you Garrett and Dallar.
“The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems
is the day you have stopped leading them.
They have either lost confidence that you can help them
or concluded that you do not care.
Either case is a failure of leadership.”

A few people do say hi and i'm one of them. Some people are busy and others may not be paying attention. Everyone could work on it i guess.
